If I could share 500 words to inspire, this is the important wisdom I'd want to pass along to others...

Truly, we are individuals of immense worth. Whether or not we realize it, you and I hold within our very lives the opportunity to be and do and become all that we choose to, allowing us to act as creators of choice, architects of existence, and inventors of reality

We, as individuals of divine origin, are creating more than we realize! We are, in fact, designing a masterpiece the likes of which can effectuate the future of people the world around. But what is the nature of this masterpiece? It is LIFE, the luminous journey we travel while here. It is in our homes, in our relationships, and among our peers and our colleagues. It is in our work, our energies, and our creative endeavors. And it is by and through our own choice. Yes, we choose. We always have.

You and I hold, briefly and for a time, the divine opportunity to reveal our brightest possible manifest to ourselves and those we encounter amid this journey. But we may want to ask, Who are we when given a challenge to face? Who are we while struggling through adversity or when surmounting the deepest trials? Who are we becoming when we give to others guidance, or direction, or fear? Who are we here, now? And what do we choose to be?

This questioning path leads us to figure out where we are, how we are managing, and what our highest way will be. But first, we may choose the ideal with which to best express that highest way: it is HOPE.

What is hope? It is the substance of man’s highest vision. It is how we endeavor to create a life held in the brightest positioning. It is the path to divine understanding. And it is the sublime character of each and all hearts shared on this planet. Hope, so beautiful, transcendent, and real. Like a young girl with stars in her eyes, reaching out with arms outstretched and embracing life in a dance of vigor, passion, and infinite creation.

We, too, can embrace life as the dance of hope, with its brilliance and transformative qualities. Like peeling back the mask of sorrow and fear, we, too, can sing with passion our own voice of hope as it calls to others on their journey, a song of LIFE, bringing peace and healing with it.

And perhaps the lyrics would ring with the simplest of words:

May my heart, soul, and mind be filled with hope, and may I be one who is truly divine. May we, as lights extraordinary, design our life in vision with hope’s ideal as man’s highest way. And may we be ONE in doing so.
